Exam GH-500 Topic 1 Question 76 Discussion

Actual exam question for Microsoft's GH-500 exam
Question #: 76
Topic #: 1
Where can you find a deleted line of code that contained a secret value?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

Secrets committed and then deleted are still accessible in the repository's Git history. To locate them, navigate to the Commits tab. GitHub's secret scanning can detect secrets in both current and historical commits, which is why remediation should also include revoking the secret, not just removing it from the latest code.
